Title: Santa Cruz Guerilla Drive-In: Down by Law
START DATE: Friday November 20
TIME: 8:00 PM - 10:30 PM
Location Details:
at SubRosa, 703 Pacific Ave. (downtown, by the Bike Church)
Event Type: Screening
The first film of the winter series (Outside if warm and inside if cold). Down by Law is a 1986 black-and-white independent film written and directed by Jim Jarmusch with Tom Waits, John Lurie, and Roberto Benigni.The film centers on the arrest, incarceration, and escape from jail of three men. It discards jailbreak film conventions by focusing on the interaction between the three rather than on the mechanics of the escape. A key element in the film is Robby Müller's slow-moving camerawork, which captures the architecture of New Orleans and the Louisiana bayou to which the cellmates escape.

We set up around 7:30, so show up early if you want to lend a hand.

I also want to remember friends and comrades that are currently caught up in the jail/prison system. Let's talk about this system and our experiences, either from being inside or being close to those that were/are. How do we support each other and challenge this mode of oppression?
